1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Qorvo, Inc. and Subsidiaries (together, the "Company" or "Qorvo") have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions, which could differ materially from actual results. In addition, certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed, or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, the financial statements include all adjustments (which are of a normal and recurring nature) necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Qorvo’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2016 .

On February 22, 2014, RF Micro Devices, Inc. (“RFMD”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization as subsequently amended on July 15, 2014 (the "Merger Agreement"), with TriQuint Semiconductor, Inc. ("TriQuint") providing for the combination of RFMD and TriQuint in a merger of equals (the "Business Combination") under a new holding company named Qorvo, Inc. The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement were consummated on January 1, 2015.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company uses a 52- or 53-week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to March 31 of each year. The first fiscal quarter of each year ends on the Saturday closest to June 30, the second fiscal quarter of each year ends on the Saturday closest to September 30 and the third fiscal quarter of each year ends on the Saturday closest to December 31. Fiscal 2017 is a 52-week year and the three and six months ended October 1, 2016 included 13 and 26 weeks, respectively. Comparatively, fiscal 2016 was a 53-week year and the three and six months ended October 3, 2015 included 14 and 27 weeks, respectively.

In the computation of diluted net income per share for the three and six months ended October 1, 2016 , outstanding options to purchase less than 0.1 million shares were excluded because the exercise price of the options was greater than the average market price of the underlying common stock and the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. In the computation of diluted net income per share for the three and six months ended October 3, 2015 , outstanding options to

Credit Agreement

On April 7, 2015, the Company and the Guarantors entered into a five-year unsecured senior credit facility with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), swing line lender, and L/C issuer, and a syndicate of lenders (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement includes a $300.0 million revolving credit facility, which includes a $25.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit and a $10.0 million sublimit for swing line loans. The Company may request, at any time and from time to time, that the revolving credit facility be increased by an amount not to exceed $150.0 million . The revolving credit facility is available to finance working capital, capital expenditures and other corporate purposes. The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are jointly and severally guaranteed by the Guarantors. During the six months ended October 1, 2016 , there were no borrowings under the revolving credit facility. The Company had no outstanding amounts under the Credit Agreement as of October 1, 2016 and April 2, 2016 .

At the Company’s option, loans under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at (i) the Applicable Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or (ii) the Applicable Rate plus a rate equal to the highest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% , (b) the prime rate of the Administrative Agent, or (c) the Eurodollar Base Rate plus 1.0% (the “Base Rate”). All swing line loans will bear interest at a rate equal to the Applicable Rate plus the Base Rate. The Eurodollar Base Rate is the rate per annum equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate, as published by Bloomberg, for dollar deposits for interest periods of one, two, three or six months, as selected by the Company. The Applicable Rate for Eurodollar Rate loans ranges from 1.50% per annum to 2.00% per annum. The Applicable Rate for Base Rate loans ranges from 0.50% per annum to 1.00% per annum. Interest for Eurodollar Rate loans will be payable at the end of each applicable interest period or at three-month intervals, if such interest period exceeds three months. Interest for Base Rate loans will be payable quarterly in arrears. The Company will pay a letter of credit fee equal to the Applicable Rate multiplied by the daily amount available to be drawn under any letter of credit, a fronting fee, and any customary documentary and processing charges for any letter of credit issued under the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement contains various conditions, covenants and representations with which the Company must be in compliance in order to borrow funds and to avoid an event of default, including financial covenants that the Company must maintain. On November 12, 2015, the Credit Agreement was amended to increase the size of certain of the negative covenant baskets and the threshold for certain negative covenant incurrence-based permissions and to raise the consolidated leverage ratio test from 2.50 to 1.00 to 3.00 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. The Company must also maintain a consolidated interest coverage ratio of not less than 3.00 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter.

The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, and the occurrence of an event of default will increase the applicable rate of interest by 2.00% and could result in the termination of commitments under the revolving credit facility, the declaration that all outstanding loans are due and payable in whole or in part and the requirement of cash collateral deposits in respect of outstanding letters of credit. Outstanding amounts are due in full on the maturity date of April 7, 2020 (with amounts borrowed under the swing line option due in full no later than ten business days after such loan is made).

6. INCOME TAXES

Income Tax Expense

The Company’s provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended October 1, 2016 and October 3, 2015 has been calculated by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year to “ordinary” income or loss (pre-tax income or loss excluding unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items) for the three and six months ended October 1, 2016 and October 3, 2015 .

The Company’s income tax expense was $17.9 million and $13.9 million for the three and six months ended October 1, 2016 , respectively, and the Company's income tax expense was $13.8 million and $14.4 million for the three and six months ended October 3, 2015 , respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate was 60.1% and 69.2% for the three and six months ended October 1, 2016 , respectively, and 75.7% and 69.0% for the three and six months ended October 3, 2015 , respectively. The Company's effective tax rate for both the second quarter of fiscal 2017 and the second quarter of fiscal 2016 differed from the statutory rate primarily due to tax rate differences in foreign jurisdictions, state income taxes, domestic tax credits generated, and changes in unrecognized tax benefits.

Deferred Taxes

A valuation allowance remained against certain domestic and foreign net deferred tax assets as it is more likely than not that the related deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company has domestic federal and state tax net operating loss (“NOLs”) carry-forwards that expire in fiscal years 2017 to 2036 if unused. The use of the NOLs that were acquired in prior year acquisitions is subject to certain annual limitations under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and similar state income tax provisions.

Uncertain Tax Positions

The Company’s gross unrecognized tax benefits increased from $69.1 million as of the end of fiscal 2016 to $79.4 million as of the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2017 , due to a $10.3 million increase related to tax positions taken with respect to the current fiscal year.

9. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Effective

In October 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-16, " Income Taxes (Topic 740), Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory" , which requires the recognition of the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset, other than inventory, when the transfer occurs. The new standard will become effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the effects this new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, "Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, a consensus of the FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force." The new guidance addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The new standard will become effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the effects the new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." The new guidance introduces an approach based on current expected losses over the life of the exposure to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. It also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and provides for a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination. The new standard will become effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021. The Company does not believe it will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting." The new guidance will simplify certain aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, forfeitures, classification of awards on the balance sheet and presentation on the statement of cash flows. The new standard will become effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the effects this new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)." The new standard will revise the current guidance for lessees, lessors and sale-leaseback transactions. Under the new guidance, substantially all lessees will now recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all of their leases with terms greater than 12 months even if the lease is an operating lease. Consistent with current GAAP, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flow arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. The new guidance becomes effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the effects this new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, "Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurements of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities." This new standard will affect the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities measured under the fair value option and presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, the FASB clarified guidance related to the assessment of valuation allowances when recognizing deferred tax assets related to unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The new standard is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The Company does not believe it will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, "Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory." Entities that measure their inventory other than pursuant to the last-in, last-out and retail inventory methods will measure their inventory at the lower of cost or net realized value. Net realized value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs to completion, transportation, or disposal. Currently, inventory is required to be measured at the lower of cost or market where market could be the replacement cost, net realizable value, or net realizable value less an approximated normal profit margin. The Company will adopt the provisions of this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2018, and is currently evaluating the impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" that amends existing guidance on revenue recognition. The new guidance is based on principles that an entity will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods and services to customers at an amount the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods and services. The guidance requires additional disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows and both qualitative and quantitative information about contracts with customers and applied significant judgments. The FASB has issued several amendments to the new guidance. In August 2015, they delayed the effective date for adoption by one year. In March 2016, additional guidance was issued that clarifies the principal versus agent considerations within the new revenue standard. In April, 2016, additional guidance was issued that clarifies the identification of distinct performance obligations in a contract as well as clarifies the accounting for licenses of intellectual property. In May 2016, additional guidance was issued related to transition, collectibility, non-cash consideration and the presentation of sales and other similar taxes. The new amended guidance will become effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, using one of two retrospective methods of adoption. The Company has not determined which method it will adopt and is evaluating the effects the new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05 , "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement " which provided additional guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. Under this guidance, if a cloud computing arrangement contains a software license, customers should account for the license element of the arrangement in a manner consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If the arrangement does not contain a software license, customers should account for the arrangement as a service contract. The Company adopted the provisions of this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, and there was no impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, " Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments." This standard requires an acquirer in a business combination to recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization or other income effects, as a result of the change in provisional amounts, are to be included in the same period’s financial statements, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The amendments in this update became effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 and will be applied prospectively to adjustments to provisional amounts that occur in the future.

10. OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company’s operating segments as of October 1, 2016 are Mobile Products (MP) and Infrastructure and Defense Products (IDP) based on the organizational structure and information reviewed by the Company's Chief Executive Officer, who is the Company's chief operating decision maker (or CODM), and these segments are managed separately based on the end markets and applications they support. The CODM allocates resources and assesses the performance of each operating segment primarily based on non-GAAP operating income (loss) and non-GAAP operating income (loss) as a percentage of revenue.

MP is a leading global supplier of RF solutions that perform various functions in the increasingly complex cellular radio front end section of smartphones and other cellular devices. These RF solutions are required in fourth generation (“4G”) data-centric devices operating under Long-Term Evolution (“LTE”) 4G networks, as well as third generation (“3G”) and second generation mobile devices. These solutions include complete RF front end modules that combine high-performance filters, power amplifiers (“PAs”), low noise amplifiers (“LNAs”) and switches, PA modules, transmit modules, antenna control solutions, antenna switch modules, diversity receive modules and envelope tracking power management devices. MP supplies its broad portfolio of RF solutions into a variety of mobile devices, including smartphones, notebook computers, wearables, tablets and cellular-based applications for the IoT, including the connected car.

IDP is a leading global supplier of RF solutions that support diverse global applications, including ubiquitous high-speed network connectivity to the cloud, data center communications, rapid internet connectivity throughout the home and workplace, and upgraded military capabilities across the globe. These RF solutions enhance performance and reduce complexity in cellular base stations, optical long haul, data center and metro networks, WiFi networks, cable networks, and emerging fifth generation (“5G”) wireless networks. Products include high power gallium arsenide (“GaAs”) and gallium nitride (“GaN”) PAs, LNAs, switches, RF filter solutions, CMOS system-on-a-chip (“SoC”) solutions and various multichip and hybrid assemblies. IDP market-leading RF solutions for defense and aerospace upgrade communications and radar systems for air, land and sea. IDP RF solutions for the IoT enable the connected car and an array of industrial applications, and serve the home automation market with SoC solutions based on ZigBee and Bluetooth Smart technologies. During the first quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company acquired GreenPeak, a leader in ultra-low power, short range RF communication technology. The acquisition expanded the Company's offerings to include integrated RF solutions and SoCs for the connected home and the IoT.

The “All other” category includes operating expenses such as stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition and integration related costs, acquired inventory step-up and revaluation, intellectual property rights (IPR) litigation settlement (costs), restructuring and disposal costs, start-up costs, gain (loss) on assets and other miscellaneous corporate overhead expenses that the Company does not allocate to its reportable segments because these expenses are not included in the segment operating performance measures evaluated by the Company’s CODM. The CODM does not evaluate operating segments using discrete asset information. The Company’s operating segments do not record intercompany revenue. The Company does not allocate gains and losses from equity investments, interest and other income, or taxes to operating segments. Except as discussed above regarding the “All other” category, the Company’s accounting policies for segment reporting are the same as for the Company as a whole.

11. CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL INFORMATION

As discussed in Note 5, the Notes were issued pursuant to the Indenture by and among the Company, the Company's domestic subsidiaries that guarantee the Company's obligations under its revolving credit facility, as guarantors, and MUFG Union Bank, N.A., as trustee. The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by each guarantor subsidiary, each of which is a direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. A guarantor subsidiary’s guarantee can be released in certain customary circumstances.

In accordance with Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X, the following presents the condensed consolidating financial information separately for:


(i)	the Company, the issuer of the Notes;


(ii)	the guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis, as specified in the Indenture;


(iii)	the non-guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis;


(iv)	consolidating entries and eliminations representing adjustments to (a) eliminate intercompany transactions between or among the Company, the guarantor subsidiaries and the non-guarantor subsidiaries, (b) eliminate intercompany profit in inventory, (c) eliminate the investments in the Company’s subsidiaries and (d) record consolidating entries; and


(v)	the Company, on a consolidated basis.

Each entity in the condensed consolidating financial information follows the same accounting policies as described in the consolidated financial statements, except for the use by the Company and guarantor subsidiaries of the equity method of accounting to reflect ownership interests in subsidiaries that are eliminated upon consolidation. The financial information may not necessarily be indicative of the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows, had the Company, guarantor or non-guarantor subsidiaries operated as independent entities.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

SAFE HARBOR FOR FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that relate to our plans, objectives, estimates and goals. Statements expressing expectations regarding our future and projections relating to products, sales, revenues and earnings are typical of such statements and are made under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” and “estimate,” and variations of such words and similar expressions, identify such forward-looking statements. Our business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to the factors listed below:


•	changes in business and economic conditions, including downturns in the semiconductor industry and the overall economy;


•	our ability to accurately predict market requirements and evolving industry standards in a timely manner;


•	our ability to accurately predict customer demand and thereby avoid the possibility of obsolete inventory, which would reduce our profit margins;


•	our customers’ and distributors’ ability to manage the inventory they hold and forecast their demand;


•	our ability to successfully integrate acquired businesses, operations, product technologies and personnel as well as achieve expected synergies;


•	our ability to achieve cost savings and improve yields and margins on our new and existing products;


•	our ability to respond to possible downward pressure on the average selling prices of our products caused by our customers or our competitors;


•	our ability to utilize our capacity efficiently, or to acquire or source additional capacity, in response to customer demand;


•	the inability of one or more of our customers to access their traditional sources of credit, which could lead them to reduce their level of purchases or seek credit or other accommodations from us;


•	our ability to continue to improve our product designs, develop new products in response to new technologies, and achieve design wins;

•	our ability to manage platform provider and customer relationships;

Table of Contents


•	our ability to procure, commercialize and enforce intellectual property rights (IPR) and to operate our business without infringing on the unlicensed IPR of others;


•	the risks associated with security breaches and other similar disruptions, which could compromise our information and expose us to liability and could cause our business and reputation to suffer;


•	currency fluctuations, tariffs, trade barriers, tax and export license requirements and health and security issues associated with our foreign operations;


•	the impact of stringent environmental regulations;


•	the adverse impact of any future decision to repatriate non-U.S. earnings;


•	our ability to attract and retain skilled personnel and develop leaders for key business units and functions; and


•	failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, including difficulty in integrating the businesses of RFMD and TriQuint or not realizing the expected amount and timing of cost savings and operating synergies.

These and other risks and uncertainties, which are described in more detail in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and in other reports and statements that we file with the SEC, could cause the actual results and developments to be materially different from those expressed or implied by any of these forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they were made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise such statements, except as required by the federal securities laws.

OVERVIEW

Company

The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") is intended to help the reader understand the consolidated results of operations and financial condition of Qorvo. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes.

We are a leading provider of technologies and solutions that address the growing demand for always-on, high reliability, broadband data connectivity. We combine one of the industry’s broadest portfolios of radio frequency (“RF”) solutions and semiconductor technologies with deep systems-level expertise and scale manufacturing capabilities to enable a diverse set of cutting-edge customer products, including smartphones, tablets, wearables, broadband customer premise equipment, home automation, in-vehicle infotainment, data center and military radar and communications. Our products are helping to drive the ongoing, rapid transformation of how people around the world interact with their communities, access and use data, and transact commerce.

We have more than 8,000 global employees dedicated to delivering solutions for everything that connects the world. We have world-class ISO-certified manufacturing facilities, and our Richardson, Texas facility is a U.S. Department of Defense- accredited ‘Trusted Source’ (Category 1A) for gallium arsenide ("GaAs"), gallium nitride ("GaN") and bulk acoustic wave (“BAW”) technologies, products and services. Our design and manufacturing expertise encompasses many semiconductor process technologies, which we source both internally and through external suppliers. We operate worldwide with design, sales and manufacturing facilities located throughout Asia, Europe and North America. Our primary manufacturing facilities are located in North Carolina, Oregon, Texas and Florida, and our primary assembly and test facilities are located in China, Costa Rica and Texas.

We design, develop, manufacture and market our products to leading U.S. and international original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") and original design manufacturers ("ODMs") in the following operating segments:

•

Mobile Products (MP) - MP is a leading global supplier of RF solutions that perform various functions in the increasingly complex cellular radio front end section of smartphones and other cellular devices. These RF solutions are required in fourth generation (“4G”) data-centric devices operating under Long-Term Evolution 4G networks, as well as third generation and second generation mobile devices. Our solutions include complete RF front end modules that combine

high-performance filters, power amplifiers ("PAs"), low noise amplifiers ("LNAs") and switches, PA modules, transmit modules, antenna control solutions, antenna switch modules, diversity receive modules and envelope tracking power management devices. MP supplies its broad portfolio of RF solutions into a variety of mobile devices, including smartphones, notebook computers, wearables, tablets, and cellular-based applications for the Internet of Things (“IoT”), including the connected car.

•

Infrastructure and Defense Products (IDP) - IDP is a leading global supplier of RF solutions that support diverse global applications, including ubiquitous high-speed network connectivity to the cloud, data center communications, rapid internet connectivity throughout the home and workplace, and upgraded military capabilities across the globe. Qorvo’s RF solutions enhance performance and reduce complexity in cellular base stations, optical long haul, data center and metro networks, WiFi networks, cable networks, and emerging fifth generation ("5G") wireless networks. Our IDP products include high power GaAs and GaN PAs, LNAs, switches, RF filter solutions, CMOS system-on-a-chip ("SoC") solutions and various multichip and hybrid assemblies. Our market-leading RF solutions for defense and aerospace upgrade communications and radar systems for air, land and sea.

The acquisition expanded our offerings to include integrated RF solutions and SoCs for the connected home and the IoT.

As of October 1, 2016 , our reportable segments are MP and IDP. These business segments are based on the organizational structure and information reviewed by our Chief Executive Officer, who is our chief operating decision maker (or CODM), and these segments are managed separately based on the end markets and applications they support. The CODM allocates resources and assesses the performance of each operating segment primarily based on non-GAAP operating income (loss) and non-GAAP operating income (loss) as a percentage of revenue (see Note 10 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional information regarding our operating segments).

SECOND QUARTER FISCAL 2017 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS:


•	Quarterly revenue increased 22.1% as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2016 , due to higher demand for our cellular RF solutions for smartphones, wireless infrastructure and WiFi products, as well as the addition of GreenPeak revenue.

•

Gross margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 was 36.6% as compared to 40.2% for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 . Although year-over-year revenue increased substantially, gross margin was adversely impacted by several factors, including an unfavorable change in product mix towards lower margin products, average selling price erosion and unfavorable inventory adjustments primarily due to quality issues and lower than expected manufacturing and assembly yields on a high volume part.

•

Operating income was $45.4 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 as compared to operating income of $18.0 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 . This improvement was primarily due to increased gross profit, lower stock-based compensation expense and lower intangible asset amortization expense. These increases in operating income were partially offset by higher personnel expense primarily driven by increased manufacturing and research and development headcount.


•	Diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 was $0.09 as compared $0.03 for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 .


•	Cash flow from operations was $250.0 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 as compared to $168.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 . This year-over-year increase was primarily attributable to changes in working capital and higher profitability.


•	Capital expenditures were $120.0 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 as compared to $80.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 . This year-over-year increase was primarily related to projects for increasing premium filter capacity and projects for manufacturing cost savings initiatives.


•	During the second quarter of fiscal 2017, we recorded interest expense of $17.3 million (which was offset by $2.4 million of capitalized interest) on the $1.0 billion of senior notes that were issued in the third quarter of fiscal 2016.


•	During the second quarter of fiscal 2017, we repurchased approximately 1.6 million shares of our common stock for approximately $91.4 million .

Interest Expense

During the three and six months ended October 1, 2016 , we recorded interest expense of $17.3 million and $34.8 million , respectively, related to the $1.0 billion of senior notes that were issued in the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Interest expense in the preceding table for the three and six months ended October 1, 2016 is net of capitalized interest of $2.4 million and $5.4 million , respectively.

Other (Expense) Income

During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, we sold equity securities and recognized a gain of approximately $4.0 million .

Income Taxes

Our provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended October 1, 2016 and October 3, 2015 has been calculated by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year to “ordinary” income or loss (pre-tax income or loss excluding unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items) for the three and six months ended October 1, 2016 and October 3, 2015 .

For the three and six months ended October 1, 2016 , we had an income tax expense of $17.9 million and $13.9 million , respectively, which was comprised primarily of tax expense related to domestic and international operations generating pre-tax

Table of Contents

book income offset by a tax benefit related to international operations generating pre-tax book losses. For the three and six months ended October 3, 2015 , income tax expense was $13.8 million and $14.4 million , respectively, which was comprised primarily of tax expense related to domestic and international operations generating pre-tax book income offset by a tax benefit related to international operations generating pre-tax book losses.

A valuation allowance remained against certain domestic and foreign net deferred tax assets as it is more likely than not that the related deferred tax assets will not be realized.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We have funded our operations to date through revenue from product sales, sales of equity and debt securities, bank borrowings and capital equipment leases. As of October 1, 2016 , we had working capital of approximately $1,025.1 million , including $469.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared to working capital of approximately $1,135.4 million at April 2, 2016 , including $425.9 million in cash and cash equivalents.

Our total cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $469.2 million as of October 1, 2016 . This balance includes approximately $273.9 million held by our foreign subsidiaries. If the undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries are needed in the U.S., we may be required to accrue and pay U.S. taxes to repatriate. Our current plans are to permanently reinvest the undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries.

Stock Repurchases

On November 5, 2015, we announced a new share repurchase program to repurchase up to $1.0 billion of our outstanding stock through November 4, 2016. During the third quarter of fiscal 2016, we repurchased approximately 4.6 million shares of our common stock for approximately $250.0 million and during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, we repurchased approximately 10.0 million shares of our common stock for approximately $500.0 million . The amounts for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 reflect shares repurchased pursuant to variable maturity accelerated shares repurchase ("ASR") agreements that we entered into with Bank of America, N.A. on February 16, 2016 as part of the $1.0 billion share repurchase program described above. Final settlements of the ASR agreements were completed during the first quarter of fiscal 2017 with an additional 0.4 million shares received.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2017, we repurchased approximately 1.6 million shares of our common stock pursuant to this authorization for approximately $91.4 million .

On November 3, 2016, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program to repurchase up to $500.0 million of our outstanding stock. The new repurchase program includes approximately $158.6 million authorized on a prior program that was set to expire on November 4, 2016. Under the share repurchase program, share repurchases will be made in accordance with applicable securities laws on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The extent to which we repurchase our shares, the number of shares and the timing of any repurchases will depend on general market conditions, regulatory requirements, alternative investment opportunities and other considerations. The program does not require us to repurchase a minimum number of shares and does not have a fixed term, and may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Operating activities for the six months ended October 1, 2016 generated cash of $309.4 million , compared to $310.2 million for the six months ended October 3, 2015 .

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended October 1, 2016 was $187.0 million as compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $25.5 million for the six months ended October 3, 2015 . This year over year increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily driven by the acquisition of GreenPeak and increased capital expenditures (primarily related to projects for increasing premium filter capacity and projects for manufacturing cost savings initiatives).

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $79.0 million for the six months ended October 1, 2016 , compared to $465.9 million for the six months ended October 3, 2015 . This year over year decrease in cash used in financing activities was primarily driven by lower share repurchase activity, which was partially offset by lower net proceeds from borrowings.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Credit Agreement On April 7, 2015, we and certain of our material domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) entered into a five-year unsecured senior credit facility with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, swing line lender, and L/C issuer, and a syndicate of lenders (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement includes a $300.0 million revolving credit facility, which includes a $25.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit and a $10.0 million sublimit for swing line loans. We may request, at any time and from time to time, that the revolving credit facility be increased by an amount not to exceed $150.0 million . The revolving credit facility is available to finance working capital, capital expenditures and other corporate purposes. Our obligations under the Credit Agreement are jointly and severally guaranteed by the Guarantors. We had no outstanding amounts under the Credit Agreement as of October 1, 2016 .

The Credit Agreement contains various conditions, covenants and representations with which we must be in compliance in order to borrow funds and to avoid an event of default, including financial covenants that we must maintain. On November 12, 2015, the Credit Agreement was amended to increase the size of certain of the negative covenant baskets and the threshold for certain negative covenant incurrence-based permissions and to raise the consolidated leverage ratio test from 2.50 to 1.00 to 3.00 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. We must also maintain a consolidated interest coverage ratio of not less than 3.00 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. At October 1, 2016 , we were in full compliance with these covenants.

Notes Offering On November 19, 2015, we completed an offering of $450.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% senior notes due December 1, 2023 and $550.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.00% senior notes due December 1, 2025 (collectively the ”Notes”). The Notes are senior unsecured obligations and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by our domestic subsidiaries that guarantee our obligations under our revolving credit facility. Interest on both series of the Notes is payable semi-annually on June 1 and December 1 of each year and commenced on June 1, 2016.

The indenture governing the Notes contains customary events of default, including among other things, payment default, exchange default, failure to provide certain notices thereunder and certain provisions related to bankruptcy events. The indenture also contains customary negative covenants.

We completed an exchange offer on September 19, 2016 under which substantially all of the Notes were exchanged for senior notes registered under the Securities Act (see Note 5 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

Capital Commitments At October 1, 2016 , we had capital commitments of approximately $124.3 million primarily related to projects increasing premium filter capacity, projects for manufacturing cost savings initiatives, constructing a new office and design center, equipment replacements and general corporate purposes.

Future Sources of Funding Our future capital requirements may differ materially from those currently anticipated and will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to, market acceptance of and demand for our products, acquisition opportunities, technological advances and our relationships with suppliers and customers. Based on current and projected levels of cash flow from operations, coupled with our existing cash and cash equivalents and our revolving credit facility, we believe that we have sufficient liquidity to meet both our short-term and long-term cash requirements. However, if there is a significant decrease in demand for our products, or in the event that growth is faster than we had anticipated, operating cash flows may be insufficient to meet our needs. If existing resources and cash from operations are not sufficient to meet our future requirements or if we perceive conditions to be favorable, we may seek additional debt or equity financing. We cannot be sure that any additional equity or debt financing will not be dilutive to holders of our common stock. Further, we cannot be sure that additional equity or debt financing, if required, will be available on favorable terms, if at all.

Legal We are involved in various legal proceedings and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business that have not been fully adjudicated. These actions, when finally concluded and determined, will not, in the opinion of management, have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Taxes We are subject to income and other taxes in the United States and in numerous foreign jurisdictions. Our domestic and foreign tax liabilities are subject to the allocation of revenues and expenses in different jurisdictions. Additionally, the amount of taxes paid is subject to our interpretation of applicable tax laws in the jurisdictions in which we operate. We are subject to audits by tax authorities. While we endeavor to comply with all applicable tax laws, there can be no assurance that a governing tax authority will not have a different interpretation of the law than we do or that we will comply in all respects with applicable tax laws, which could result in additional taxes. There can be no assurance that the outcomes from tax audits will not have an adverse effect on our results of operations in the period during which the review is conducted.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

There have been no material changes to our market risk exposures during the second quarter of fiscal 2017 . For a discussion of our exposure to market risk, refer to Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” contained in Qorvo's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2016 .

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as of October 1, 2016 , of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of October 1, 2016 , as we cannot conclude that the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting related to accounting for income taxes described in Part II, Item 9A of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2016 has been fully remediated as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Update on Remediation Plan

During the quarter ended October 1, 2016 , we made substantial progress toward remediating the material weakness that existed in accounting for income taxes as of April 2, 2016. Our remediation plan is subject to ongoing senior management review, as well as Audit Committee oversight. As part of such plan, as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q:


•	We have implemented a single income tax provision model in conjunction with completing our move to a single integrated ERP system.


•	We have filled three open positions within the tax department. We will continue to evaluate the structure of our tax organization and add resources as needed.


•	With the assistance of a qualified outside party, we have undergone a review and assessment of our internal controls over accounting for income taxes and the tax provision process. Based on that review and assessment, we are in process of redesigning and enhancing our procedures to improve the effectiveness of the internal controls related to accounting for income taxes.

The Company believes that the remediation steps completed to date have significantly improved our internal control over the accounting for income taxes. However, the Company expects to continue to further strengthen internal controls over accounting for income taxes and make additional improvements in the tax provision process during the remainder of fiscal 2017. Until these remediation steps are fully implemented and tested, the material weakness described above will continue to exist.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

Other than the remediation steps described above, no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the quarter ended October 1, 2016 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

In addition to the other information set forth in this report and in our other reports and statements that we file with the SEC, including our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, careful consideration should be given to the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A., “Risk Factors” in Qorvo's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2016 , which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in Qorvo's Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.

On November 5, 2015, the Company announced a new share repurchase program to repurchase up to $1.0 billion of the Company's outstanding stock through November 4, 2016. During the third quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company repurchased approximately 4.6 million shares of its common stock for approximately $250.0 million and during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company repurchased approximately 10.0 million shares of its common stock for approximately $500.0 million. The amounts for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 reflect shares repurchased pursuant to variable maturity accelerated shares repurchase ("ASR") agreements that the Company entered into with Bank of America, N.A. on February 16, 2016 as part of the $1.0 billion share repurchase program described above. Final settlements of the ASR agreements were completed during the first quarter of fiscal 2017 with an additional 0.4 million shares received.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company repurchased approximately 1.6 million shares of its common stock for approximately $91.4 million .

On November 3, 2016, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program to repurchase up to $500.0 million of the Company's outstanding stock. The new repurchase program includes approximately $158.6 million authorized on a prior program that was set to expire on November 4, 2016. Under the share repurchase program, share repurchases will be made in accordance with applicable securities laws on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The extent to which the Company repurchases its shares, the number of shares and the timing of any repurchases will depend on general market conditions, regulatory requirements, alternative investment opportunities and other considerations. The program does not require the Company to repurchase a minimum number of shares and does not have a fixed term, and may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice.
